That's why he ran, for legacy. Tywin Trump.

I’m worried that international law is meaningless, and that my country is now openly embracing the totalitarian police state.
Why should you care? Because it’s run by a psychopath with a bigger military budget than your GDP.
But no, tell me how great we’re gonna be once we silence all the wrongthink.
In the end, I was a state sanctioned mass murderer for the British Crown.
So I don't even judge psychopaths that harshly.
I have human empathy. But on the other hand I can compartmentalize it for political reasons.
I'm certainly no angel, or rather perhaps I am, as angels were actually dealers of destruction.
Either way, I don't point fingers from a high horse. I'm infantry, not cavalry.

Tywin Trump, doing it for the family legacy. Trump insulting his political opponents doesn't make him Cersei, the media wishes he was Cersei, but he's clearly Tywin.

yeah i think this will have a chilling effect on publishing sensitive information, nevermind journalism in general. by far trump's biggest assault on the press, i wonder how hesitant media outlets will be covering info dumps from wikileaks or whatever else in the future. disappointed in trump but unsurprised, precisely why i didnt vote for him but still wanted him to win, hillary for sure would have pursued charges against assange, trump could still pardon or commute him for all i know. if the handful of republicans in congress raise enough of a stink maybe trump will throw them a bone. i doubt it but i think people are sleeping on trump, i think he's open to be convinced. kim kardashian convinced him to pardon some woman, how come no one else is trying to do that? he even threw a bone to the kneeling athletes, asking for a list of people to be pardoned. did they ever come up with a list?

He is going to the ADX in Florence Colorado, with the Unabomber.
They haven't dropped the Espionage Act on him yet, cause they want to make sure he is extradited.
Once he sets foot on American soil, then they will bring the noise.

rand paul was flirting with immunity recently, i wouldnt be surprised to find a handful of liberty-minded freedom caucus republicans pushing for a pardon. maybe a few democrats but assange pissed too many of them off in 2016. again i said i doubt it would happen but it's worth more of a shot with trump than anyone else

Sayonara, Julian.
Say hi to the Unabomber.
Apparently if you stick a toilet roll in the toilet to block it, you can shout to each other through the plumbing,

You're going to be disappointed. Trump isn't going to pardon him, no chance.pineapplemike wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2019 10:07 pmrand paul was flirting with immunity recently, i wouldnt be surprised to find a handful of liberty-minded freedom caucus republicans pushing for a pardon. maybe a few democrats but assange pissed too many of them off in 2016. again i said i doubt it would happen but it's worth more of a shot with trump than anyone else

Actually kind of surprised assange cost so much. Ecuador drove a hard bargain.
